A rare combination of subtlety and surprise, the art of Ninjutsu can be mysterious and elusive. Fortunately, Ninja Hoops is here to break it down nice and easy.

Our workshop will cover stances and footwork, kicks and strikes, fanciness and flair, and even extend to some partner interaction. We’ll also learn how to increase our power, speed, and precision by accessing the vibrant and explosive energy behind the navel.
